Anyone with admin privileges is able to assign further privileges, including admin privileges, to other RIPE NCC Access accounts. If no one has access, please follow this process to nominate a different RIPE NCC Access account to receive admin privileges.

The Reg-ID is only an internal identifier and is of no value externally. Changing this identifier causes a lot of internal administrative work and can create archiving problems.

It can be difficult to track the history of a registry that has changed it's Reg-ID. It is important that the archives are in order, so that RIPE NCC staff can find all requests related to a registry even if the registry changes names several times.

These cases have to be treated on a case by case basis, since there are different matters that need to be taken into account, such as billing issues, address space usage, routing, new service agreement, etc.

The RIPE NCC Charging Scheme works on the principle of "one fee per LIR". In 2013, all RIPE NCC members are charged an annual fee of €1,800 for each LIR they hold. There is a separate charge of €50 per Provider Independent (PI) number resource assignment. AS Numbers are excluded from this separate charge.

The RIPE NCC sends invoices on a yearly, half-yearly or quarterly basis. Members may choose the most suitable invoicing period. More details on billing, including the annual fees and the billing schedule, are available.

No. The charges are fixed annual charges, based on the size category of the Local Registry. As a member of the RIPE NCC you are charged based on the services you receive from the RIPE NCC, not on the amount of addresses you obtain. For more information see the current version of the "RIPE NCC Activities, Expenditures, and Charging Scheme" located in the RIPE Document Store.

For the first six months after signing the Standard Service Agreement, all members are assigned candidate status. During that time, members have access to all RIPE NCC Services and are welcome to attend the RIPE NCC General Meeting but are not permitted to vote.

FULL

After six months, candidate members are converted into full members and may vote during the RIPE NCC General Meeting.

CLOSED

The Standard Service Agreement may be terminated either by the RIPE NCC or by a member. If an agreement has been closed, it will no longer be possible to utilise any RIPE NCC Services.
